Effect of pentoxifylline on veno-occlusive priapism-induced corporeal tissule lipid peroxidation in a rat model

Objective: To investigate whether pentoxifylline could play a role in attenuation of the hazardous effects of ischemia/reperfusion on corporeal tissue in a rat model of veno-occlusive priapism (VOP). Materials and methods: Placebo and pentoxifylline were given to eight groups of rats prior to priapism being induced by a vacuum constrictive device for durations of 6 and 12 h, respectively. Half of the groups of rats that underwent the same duration of priapism (ischemic) were subjected to 1 h of detumescence after band removal (reperfusion). One group underwent no manipulation and no drug administration and served as a baseline determination (control). Corporeal homogenates were examined for lipid peroxidation (LP) derived malondialdehyde (MDA) accumulation via thiobarbituric acid assay. Results: MDA concentration differed significantly between VOP rats and controls (P < 0.001) but did not differ significantly between ischemic-only groups and reperfused groups (P > 0.05). In the pentoxifyllinepretreated groups, although MDA accumulation tended to be slightly lower than in the placebo groups, the difference was not statistically significant (P > 0.05) either in the 6- or 12-h duration priapic groups. Conclusions: LP, an indicator of radical oxygen metabolite (ROM) induced injury, occurs in rat corporeal tissue during and after abolishment of VOP. Single-dose pentoxifylline pretreatment failed to exert a protective effect on corporeal tissue in a rat model of VOP in terms of attenuation of LP.     

已酮可可碱对神经病理性疼痛大鼠的镇痛作用及机制

目的观察已酮可可碱（PTX）对神经病理性疼痛大鼠的镇痛作用及其机制。方法成年雄性SD大鼠96只随机分为假手术组、慢性坐骨神经结扎损伤（CCI）组和PTX组，CCI组和PTX组按Bennett法建立CCI模型．PTX组于术前1d开始至取材点每天腹腔注射PTX 100mg／kg．假手术组注射相同容积的生理盐水，CCI组造模后不做任何处理。于手术后1、3、7、11、14、21d用von-Frey filaments测定机械性痛觉过敏（MWT），按Hargreaves法测定热痛觉过敏（TWL）；并于1、7、14、21d时处死大鼠，取腰段脊髓用双抗体夹心ELISA法测定细胞因子含量。结果与假手术组相比，CCI模型大鼠机械痛阈于术后1d开始下降，7d最显著，热痛阈3d时下降最显著（P〈0．01）。PTX组痛阈在各时间点均较CCI组显著升高（P〈0．05）。CCI后1d即出现IL-6、TNFα、IL-1β蛋白含量升高，于术后7d达到高峰，14d时仍然较高（p〈0．05）。TNFα和IL-1β于术后21d明显下降至接近基础值，但IL-6表达一直持续至术后21d。PTX组脊髓细胞因子含量明显低于CCI组（P〈0．05）。结论PTX可显著抑制神经病理性疼痛，此作用与其抑制脊髓细胞因子表达有关。

Pentoxifylline attenuates the development of hyperalgesia in a rat model of neuropathic pain

Pentoxifylline, a non-specific cytokine inhibitor, has shown to be beneficial in inflammatory pain in both experimental and clinical studies. The present study demonstrates for the first time, to our knowledge, the antihyperalgesic effect of pentoxifylline in the neuropathic pain using L5 spinal nerve transection rat model. In a preventive paradigm, pentoxifylline (12.5, 25, 50, or 100 mg/kg intraperitoneally) was administered systemically daily, beginning 1 h prior to nerve transection. Pentoxifylline (50, or 100 mg/kg i.p.) produced significant decrease in the mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia. However, pentoxifylline (100 mg/kg i.p.) did not influence the paw pressure thresholds and paw withdrawal latency in sham-operated rats. In order to understand the possible antinocicieptive effect of pentoxifylline in neuropathic pain, we examined the level of TNFα, IL-1β, IL-6 and IL-10 protein in the contralateral brain on day 7 post-transection. Pentoxifylline administration resulted in a dose-dependent reduction of the production of proinflammatory cytokines like TNFα, IL-1β and IL-6, and enhancement of IL-10. Furthermore, we investigated the activity of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) in the contralateral brain on days 7 after surgery. In accordance with the change of proinflammatory cytokines, Pentoxifylline (50 or 100 mg/kg) significantly inhibited the activation of NF-κB in the brain. This research supports a growing body of literature emphasizing the importance of neuroinflammation and neuroimmune activation in the development of neuropathic pain states, and the potential preventive value of pentoxifylline in the treatment of neuropathic pain.     

高糖及己酮可可碱对肾间质成纤维细胞作用的研究

目的：探讨糖尿病肾病肾间质病变的机理以及己酮可可碱对肾间质成纤维细胞的作用。方法：为研究高糖对肾间质成纤维细胞的作用,应用MTT比色法检测细胞的增殖,应用流式细胞仪检测细胞周期变化,并应用ELISA法检测细胞上清液中的纤维连接蛋白。同时,本研究也观察了己酮可可碱（Pentoxifylline),一种非选择性的磷酸二酯酶抑制剂对肾间质成纤维细胞的作用。结果：高糖和己酮可可碱均可抑制细胞增殖,影响细胞周期,但高糖可促进成纤维细胞分泌细胞外基质纤维连接蛋白,而己酮可可碱可减少其分泌,且可抑制高糖对成纤维细胞的作用。结论：高糖可能通过促进肾间质成纤维细胞分泌细胞外基质在糖尿病肾病的间质病变中起作用。而己酮可可碱抑制细胞增殖及细胞外基质的分泌将有利于肾间质病变的防治。     

Pentoxifylline and intravenous gamma globulin combination therapy for acute Kawasaki disease

We compared the efficacy of oral administration of pentoxifylline (PTX) and intravenous infusions of gamma globulin (IVGG) combination therapy with that of IVGG in reducing the frequency of coronary-artery lesions (CAL) in children with Kawasaki disease (KD), in a randomized trial. All patients with KD received acetylsalicylic acid (30 mg/kg per day), until the 30th day, after the onset of fever, followed by daily acetylsalicylic acid at a dose of 3-5 mg/kg per day there-after, and intravenous IVGG, 200 mg/kg per day, for 5 consecutive days. In addition, patients randomly assigned to PTX and IVGG combination therapy groups received oral PTX at a dosage of 10 mg/kg per day (low-dose) or 20 mg/kg per day (high-dose), in three divided doses until the 30th day. Patients with KD were all free from CAL prior to treatment. We assessed the presence of CAL by two-dimensional echocardiography which was also done prior to treatment and then twice a week after hospital admission. We detected CAL in 3 of 18 patients (16.7%) in the IVGG therapy group, as compared with 2 of 18 patients (11.1%) in the low-dose PTX and IVGG combination therapy group. There were no significant differences between the two groups. In the next study, we detected CAL in 3 of 21 patients (14.3%) in the IVGG therapy group, as compared with none of 22 patients (0%) in the high-dose PTX and IVGG combination therapy group (² = 6.4, P < 0.02). No adverse side-effects were observed in 79 patients with KD.     

Pentoxifylline reduces plasma tumour necrosis factor-alpha concentration in premature infants with sepsis

Increased plasma tumour necrosis factor (TNF) concentration correlates with mortality in sepsis. We suggested that pentoxifylline (PTXF), which is known to inhibit TNF production, may improve survival and attenuate clinical symptoms of sepsis in neonates. Plasma TNF levels were evaluated in 29 newborn infants with sepsis. Patients were randomly assigned into two groups, receiving PTXF in a dose of 5 mg/kg per hour for 6 h or placebo (saline), on 3 successive days. Both groups were subjected to the same conventional therapy. TNF was evaluated before and after PTXF or placebo administration on the 1 st and 3rd days of therapy. There was a statistically significant decrease in plasma TNF level in the PTXF group when the values before the first and after the last PTXF infusion were compared [mean: 671.5 pg/ml; SD: 438; med: 729.6 vs mean: 41.0 pg/ml; SD: 64.1; med: 11.5;P<0.000004]. In the placebo group, decrease was not significant [mean: 633.0 pg/ml SD: 488.6; med: 618.9 vs 246.9 pg/ml; SD: 243.9; med: 191.0]. A significantly higher plasma TNF level, evaluated after the last PTXF infusion, was found in the placebo group [246,9 pg/ml vs 41.0 pg/ml;P<0.001]. Only one of four infants with signs of shock in the placebo group survived, whereas all of five newborns with symptoms of shock in the PTXF group survived [P<0.04]. An increased incidence of metabolic acidosis [P<0.05], necrotizing enterocolitis [P<0.04] and renal insufficiency [P<0.05] was observed in infants in the placebo group.Conclusion PTXF inhibits production of TNF and may have therapeutic value in the treatment of premature infants with sepsis complicatea by shock.
